the critical issues we have encountered with the Motorola ET-1 tablet are a few different ones:
Auto Scaling of applications on the 7” tablet
Deployment of new applications and updates
Google play store access to install/deploy 3rd party application like google maps which the vertrax mobile application utilizes as part of our application
Our experiences with proprietary tablets like the Motorola ET-1 are more complex to deploy and support compared to Samsung tablets

Hi Edgar,
Can you elaborate more on the issue you are seeing with auto scaling? What type of layout are you using on the activity? In which resources folder are your images, if any?
As far as deployment we are partnering with a number of mobile device management providers (ie soti, airwatch, and others) that work very well for deploying applications and managing devices.
The ET1 does not subscribe to Google Play Services (which includes the play store and other google libraries like the maps API). This is because using any one of these requires the end user to opt-in to all of Googles agreements, with which many of our enterprise customers have some privacy concerns with (Google receiving and storing end user data on their servers). We do provide optional GMS builds on some of our devices that are more BYOD type devices (ie. TC55).
For maps you will find that there are other alternative APIs available that can provide much of the same feature set without subscribing to Google Play Services.
